1st Annual - Punk Awards

06/05/2008 By Laxpunk

Punk has been one busy dude lately.  But since I didn't get a chance to address my peoples, I figured I'd give it all to you know including the 1st Annual Punk Awards - 2008. 

This award is about just being nasty on the field and having everyone want to be you off the field.  So basically its just a player of the year or something.  Punk doesn't want to think too hard, so here they are.

1st Annual Punk Awards - Sponsored by LaxSpot.com (Powered by the Lacrosse Community!)

D1 - Paul Rabil - JHU -  Nasty, nasty, nasty!  And proved it in the National Championship Game.  He drew the LSM all season.  Without the supporting cast that some other studs had, he put it all on his shoulders.  50 points (36,14)

D2 - Greg Cerar - CW Post - He put up some great numbers as a junior and he can feed the rock as well as he scores.  67 points (43,24)

D3 - Kylor Berkman - Salisbury - A 2nd championship for Kylor as he led the Gulls at the midfield all season.  81 points (33,48) for a midfielder ain't too shabby!


Thanks to all for reading this season.  I know that you're smarter and more awesome (awesomer) for doing so.   Punk will keep on posting as I hit the summer tournaments, the beach and tryin to juggle all of these lovely ladies.

Punks Playoff Picks - Update

05/14/2008 By Laxpunk

Punk did pretty good in his picks last weekend.  Well at least in the men's side of things!  Here's how good I was.  Punk had UVA in the D1 women's championship...so luckily my winner is TBD! 

Men's
D1: 7-1 (Lost UNC game)
D2: No games
D3: 6-2

Women's
D1: 4-4 (Lost Vandy, Towson, Gtown, UVA)
D2: No games
D3: 4-4 on Sat plus 4-0 on Sunday

So much for getting the picks for today's games.  Cortland is losing 9-7 in the 4th.  That could throw off Punk's D3 championship picks.  We'll stick with my original picks and see how things go the rest of the way.

Punks Playoff Picks

05/09/2008 By Laxpunk

Punk loves the playoffs!  Time to separate the punks from the nerds.  Predicting the outcomes for the '08 playoffs will be harder than ever this season with all the 'parity' out there this year.  Punk even has the scoop on who's going to take the women's championships too. 

D1 Mens:  - I guess my prior picks were wrong seeing that Georgetown didn't even get into the tourney.  How'd I not see that coming?

First Round:  
Duke over Loyola
Ohio State over Cornell
Johns Hopkins over Hofstra
North Carolina over Navy
Syracuse over Canisius
Notre Dame over Colgate
Maryland over Denver
Virginia over UMBC

Quarterfinals:
Duke over Ohio State
Johns Hopkins over North Carolina
Syracuse over Notre Dame
Virginia over Maryland

Semis:
Duke over Johns Hopkins
Syracuse over Virginia

Finals:
Duke vs Syracuse - Winner TBA!

Cuse has had a great season, but so has Duke.  This game will be high scoring.

D2 Mens:
First Round (May 17th): 
Lemoyne over Bryant
Limestone over NYIT

Finals:
Lemoyne vs Limestone - Winner TBA!

D3 Mens:
First Round:  It already happend on Wednesday but Punk would've picked all the winners.  OWU, Bowdoin, Springfield, WNEC

Second Round:  
Cortland over Springfield
Middlebury over Bowdoin
Ithaca over Williams
Saint Lawrence over WNEC
Salisbury over OWU
Haverford over Cabrini
Washington over Lynchburg
Gettysburg over Denison

Quarterfinals:
Cortland over Middlebury
Ithaca over Saint Lawrence
Salisbury over Haverford
Gettysburg over Washington

Semis:
Cortland over Ithaca
Salisbury over Gettysburg <--Punk flipped this from his 4/30 picks

Finals:
Cortland vs Salisbury - Winner TBA!

Yes for the third straight year these two powerhouse state universities will face off in the D3 finals.  Punk expects to see lots of tight shirts and gold chains on one side and shaggy hair and madaras shorts on the other.  A standard NY vs MD battle.

Now time for the ladies.  Gotta love the ladies!  I think their sticks are better than guys after watching some top teams play this season.

D1 Womens:
First Round:  
Northwestern over Notre Dame
Vanderbilt over Princeton
Towson over Syracuse
Virginia over North Carolina
Maryland over Temple
Georgetown over Duke
Boston U over New Hampshire
Penn over Colgate

Upsets, upsets, upsets.  You heard it here first!
